LP Tim of Wat Lahanrai

As all of us know, the late LP Tim of Wat Lahanrai was the most famous guru monk of Rayong who created the first Khun Paen Prai Kuman and Phra Kring Chinabanchon amulets, respected in the whole of Thailand. He is nothing less than a legend here in Rayong province, with many prominent disciples. Above we see the shrine room with his wax statue. The temple counter. There are only 3" bucha of LP Tim and some amulets blessed by his disciples available here. Poster showing the range of amulets created by LP Tim in his lifetime. All those amulets are highly valued in Thailand until today. The range of Khun Paen Prai Kuman amulets, perhaps the most representative of them all. The main Sala. A large outdoor LP Sotorn Buddha statue. The LP Tim Vihara. Gate to the Sala with a Pidta Yant Yung statue. The Ubosot. The main altar inside the Ubosot. The Phra Kring Chinabanchon statue. In the middle of the statue is the highly prized Phra Kring Chinabanchon amulet by LP Tim. The Chedi that is still under construction. The side Vihara. A parting shot of the standing LP Tim statue.
